The FY 2009 IBSGP provides funding to create a sustainable program for the protection of intercity bus systems and the traveling public from terrorism. The program seeks to assist operators of fixed-route intercity and charter bus services in obtaining the resources required to support security measures such as enhanced planning, facility security upgrades, and vehicle and driver protection.
Total Funding Available in FY 2009: $11,658,000
The only eligible grantees for the FY 2009 IBSGP are private operators providing fixed-route or charter transportation by an over-the-road bus servicing an Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) jurisdiction. Charter companies must make a minimum of 50 trips annually to one or more UASI jurisdictions. Companies with 250 or more over-the-road buses in operation and providing the highest volume of services to high-risk urban areas will be placed in Tier I. All other applicants that meet the minimum eligibility requirements will be placed in Tier II.
